Chapter 452: The Book of War
June 5, 58.
Argentine President Frundisi visited the Ming Empire and was warmly welcomed by Führer Yang.
The next day, the two heads of state attended the signing ceremony of a series of trade contracts, according to which Argentina will become the second largest importer of grain and meat after rice in the next five years, and Argentina will also become the second largest exporter of pesticides and veterinary pharmaceuticals after rice in the Ming seed industry.
Previously, this role was played by Australia.
The day after these contracts were signed, the Ministry of Commerce of the Ming Empire suspended all grain imports of Australian origin on the grounds that pesticide residues in rice imported from Australia exceeded the standard, and then Daming Customs suspended the entry of all meat products originating in Australia on the grounds that a new virus was detected in beef imported from Australia, and even melamine was detected in milk powder originating in Australia.
Well, that's how Führer Yang told the people of the United States......
I'm ready, let's get started!
What about the rice people and kangaroos?
They're ready too.
By this time, the kangaroos had grown their army to 500,000, which was large for a country of 10 million people.
The four missile cruisers presented by the people of the United States have also joined their fleet, a modern aircraft carrier formation has also been formally formed, the army's three mixed M60 and M48A3 armored divisions have also been formed, and the Air Force has received eight F104 squadrons and four F105 squadrons, in addition to eight F100 squadrons and two B47 bomber squadrons. They themselves have four Canberra squadrons. Ten squadrons of Sabres. The air defense forces received sixteen companies of Nikki missiles with a total of sixty-four launchers. Seven defensive zones were deployed around Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Darwin.
It can be said that this average level of equipment is beyond the reach of the US military itself, for example, the M60 has not received the first batch of the US military until now.
So what else is there to worry about. Since Yang Feng has issued a war letter, of course they have to continue.
Perth, Western Australia.
A large number of police and tax officers of the Western Australian government are conducting a surprise inspection of the 50-storey Perth landmark building, and those white government employees are lying on all the information documents to search for what can be used with the dedication of the egg and bones, while the Chinese company employees are holding their arms one by one and watching coldly, but a large number of white company employees are angrily arguing with those government employees in vain.
Half an hour later, the Commissioner of Taxation presided over the inspection. With a serious face, he walked up to Sir Chen Feng, the manager of Australia's largest company, who has dual citizenship of Daming and Britain. Then he read out the results of the inspection in a businesslike tone, and Western Australia Mining was suspected of tax evasion, and ordered all its enterprises to temporarily suspend all business activities and wait for follow-up treatment.
After finishing speaking, he looked at Chen Feng.
The latter was sitting behind his desk with his eyes closed, and to the sound of opera on the tape recorder next to him, leisurely tapping his fingers on the table to the rhythm, apparently not ready to deal with him.
The director of the bureau threw down the processing notice and turned around and walked out the door.
"Smith, do you think you're going to win?"
Chen Feng suddenly said behind him.
"Sir, we have a population of 10 million, and we are the most brave and warlike people, even women can use weapons, and we can arm a million armies at any time if we want, and we have the most powerful country in the world behind us, and we still have seven million square kilometers of vast land, why can't we win?"
The director turned his head and said.
"Then we'll see."
Chen Feng, who was still with his eyes closed, shrugged and said.
An hour later.
Wing Fong, a small town in Australia's northwestern inland 1,100 kilometres from Perth.
This Chinese place name is named after the first Chinese mining engineer to arrive here, and the official name of this place on the map of Australia is Mount Wheelback, the world's largest open-pit iron mine, with a total reserve of 1.5 billion tons, and the current annual output is more than 10 million tons.
And there are many more such towns in this area.
For example, Zhenbang, which is only 200 kilometers away, is called Tom Price Mountain on the map of Australia, which was also built by workers of Huaxia Mining after the discovery of iron ore, and in the previous hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land in this area, the total population was only one or two thousand.
The ore mined from these iron ores was transported by road and rail to Port Hedland, and then loaded onto the ocean-going giant ships waiting there, and sent to Southeast Asia by ship, sent to the steel mills of Daming and all Chinese consortia, and turned into tens of millions of tons of high-quality steel, into cars, giant oil tankers, and skyscrapers, like solid columns, supporting the growing empire of the Chinese economy with Daming as the core.
Last year, 50 million tonnes of iron ore were shipped from the Port of Hedland.
But in the same way, these mines have become the Australian government, the treasures coveted by the whites, and the Chinese who have been pouring into the area have become the most hated enemies of the whites. In this continent with the deepest form of discrimination, the white people have continued the White Australia policy for more than half a century, and the descendants of the mangs and criminals are hostile to all other races of color who try to share this rich continent with them, especially the Chinese, whose hatred of the Chinese has been since the nineteenth century.
And now because of the coveting of iron ore, this hatred has been pushed to the extreme.
", you thieves who stole our iron ore, your good days are over."
Entering the entrance to one of the town's main streets, hundreds of white miners smirked at a group of Chinese miners as they approached.
Of course, there can't be only Chinese miners here, in fact, more than a third are still white, and just now, the police and tax officers stationed here by the Western Australian government directly ordered the mine to stop operating, and at the same time asked all Chinese miners not to leave the mining area, and even the Australian garrison helicopter airlifted a platoon of soldiers to cordon off the entire town.
The white miners immediately understood that the Australian government had finally made up its mind to take back the mines.
Of course these guys are happy, as long as the Chinese are driven away, they are the pillars of this mine, and future promotions and salary increases are indispensable, not to mention that the previous mine management was basically Chinese, which they have been jealous of for a long time, and now that they have finally got their wish at this moment, it is inevitable to vent.
The Chinese miners, who were walking towards the residential area under the surveillance of Australian soldiers, watched their performance coldly one by one.
The person in charge of the mine had already told them that they would just go back to the residential area and wait, they would not wait too long, and since this was the case, there was no need to worry about these white people, anyway, when the Ming army came, these guys would cry.
However, at this moment, in a store not far from them, a woman's scream was suddenly heard, and then a white miner swaggered out of it with a large box of things, followed by a Chinese woman, who dragged him by the hand and angrily accused, it was obvious that this guy did not pay. This scene made other white people also want to move, and they suddenly remembered that the Chinese here do not have Australian nationality, but actually come as laborers, which means that everything about them is not protected by Australian law.
"Aren't you going to care?"
A Chinese iron ore mine executive pointed to a white miner who was turning around and kicking the woman away, and angrily said to an officer next to him.
The latter shrugged casually without any answer.
The executive looked at the Chinese miners with a gloomy face.
Almost at the same time, the two Chinese miners in the crowd suddenly slowed down and approached an officer who was watching them in tacit understanding, at which point the eyes of all the Australian soldiers were drawn to them, and the white miners around them were rushing to all the Chinese shops, taverns and even banks in the vicinity, and no one paid any attention to them.
The two Chinese miners who inadvertently moved to the officer's side, glanced at each other, and suddenly pounced, one of them raised his foot and kicked directly at the officer's knee, while the other smashed his fist into his head, and the officer who was caught off guard subconsciously pulled out his gun, but as soon as he untied the holster, he fell straight forward under the force of the front and back. As he fell, he pulled the pistol out, but at the same time a miner snatched it from him with great speed, pulled open the sleeve in the blink of an eye, and shot a nearby Australian soldier in the chest.
The latter had just picked up Garand in his hand when he was slammed backwards by the force of the bullet, and at the moment when his finger pulled the trigger, the nearest miner also grabbed the barrel of the gun.
As two gunshots rang out, almost all of the Chinese miners in the crowd, who had been holding back their anger for a long time, rushed to the nearest Australian soldiers and policemen, who numbered in the thousands, what use could those dozens of soldiers and policemen have. What's more, these miners are all strong young men, and many of them are retired Ming soldiers, even if they are not retired soldiers, they are all regularly trained every year, and it can be said that the Australians were disarmed in a blink of an eye.
The executive also shrugged his shoulders and said to the already stupid officer, "Since you don't care, we'll take care of it ourselves." (To be continued.) )
